I'm still rocking the 30 day challenge. I should call mine a "30 Week Blog Challenge" because that's probably how often I do blog nowadays.
I digress. Day Thirteen: A Letter to someone who has recently hurt you.
I am not easily hurt or offended. It's difficult to really "hurt" me. I have a giant wall that guards my deep emotions that was built many years ago. If anyone knows how to hurt me, besides my husband and bestest best friend, it's myself. I tend to hurt myself a lot more often than I should. Having said that, I will write a letter to myself.
Dear Me,
I want to express to you how I am feeling when you say horrible things to me like "You can't do it" or "Give Up!" I am amazing. I shouldn't think any other way. I know you doubt me sometimes, but I do my best. I love my Savior. I love my husband. I like my job, and my friends are a strong constant in my life. I don't like it when you think I can't accomplish the things I have planned for myself.
Nelson Mandela once said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." I believe that to be true! I need a degree. I don't like that you keep putting these ideas into my head that I can't get a degree, that it is too far away to even comprehend. I know I can finish school. I know I need to finish. It hurts me that you can't believe in me just enough to keep with it.
Please understand. We have had such great times together where we've agreed. Let's get back on track with our relationship, and put this behind us.
Sincerely,
Myself

I love you!! That was amazing! I have those same feelings. YOU CAN DO IT.
I really like this. I find that I feel the same way often. I feel that because I haven't finished my goal already that I'm not good enough and will never get there. But I keep trying..
